Overview
My name is Cort Carpenter and I’m a Nashville touring recording artist ready to make your event a memorable one. *(For show requests outside of Nashville, please inquire). We travel.
If you are in Nashville celebrating any event, or just love country music and want your own private concert, I bring that to your Air BnB, hotel room, house, etc. I bring my personal Bose sound system and my guitarist and I come, set up, and supply the music! We specialize in country music and will bring all the sing-a-longs for your party as well. We can also rock a full band performance for your next big event as well.
Let us bring the memories to you that only a select few will get to experience!

Cort Carpenter is an amazing talent, so entertaining and very professional!! I want to have another party just so I can have him back! And also his guitarist Tyler who is very talented, professional and fun!! They make the best team!! My birthday party this year was the one I have enjoyed the most because of them!! They kept the guest engaged, accommodating their requests, they even did karaoke for some of them. They arrived early to set up and played until the end with the same energy!! Everyone had the best time!! Can’t wait to have them back!!
Cort exceeded our expectations in every way - great voice and personality!
We loved having Cort and Tyler perform at our daughter's graduation party. Cort was a pleasure from the first communication and throughout the night of the event. He has a great voice and our friends and family enjoyed his singing and camaraderie. We would definitely have them again without question. He and Tyler were professional and personable - we could have listened to them all night.
Country Singer
We hired Cort while in Nashville to play for a surprise for my spouse’s 65th birthday. He came to the house to do an hour set for us. We had die hard country and non country music fans in our party of 10 and everyone said Cort was the highlight of our bday weekend! It felt like a kitchen party from back east!
He showed up on time and was generous with his time afterwards doing pictures with everyone in our group, even though he had another event to go to.
We would hire Cort again and again!!!
Cort was a pure delight. He is an amazing talent. He played all the great songs plus some originals. He was engaging and fun with the crowd. The icing on the cake was that he was super communicative, showed up on time, was pleasant and enthusiastic. Working with him was the easiest part of the party.
Country Band
Response from Cort Carpenter | Recording Artist:
Gwen! It was our pleasure and we are so happy you hired us for the big Grad Party! We had a blast and are so glad everyone enjoyed the set! You were a breeze to work with and the entire thing was perfect. I appreciate you! Hope we can do it again sometime. Cheers!

What to Expect
Coming to Nashville?
The audience can expect an intimate experience where Cort & his guitarist (Tyler) will provide various country tunes for however long you hire them for.
If this is a booking outside of Nashville and you want them to travel to you, that's no problem. *Acoustic Duo or Full band available
Cort specializes in the modern country music genre, but can play some your favorite country hits from all decades upon request. Said to have some of the best original music in Nashville, he is always down for you to hear his music as well. Whatever your choice!
He will supply a list of songs to the event coordinators where they can pick the songs they want to hear (if requested), or just let us play what they feel the mood needs. Cort knows how to keep a party going and when to play certain tunes at the right moment, so don't ever worry about that. However, it's up to you! They are here to make your event the best possible.
If you are looking for high energy music to keep a party poppin', he can provide it.
If you are looking for medium tempo, he can provide it.
If you are looking for love songs to fit an occasion, he can provide it.
For Nashville bookings, Cort will ALSO supply the sound system which takes away costs from event planners! They will need just need 1 hour to set up at max, and then we are ready to go!
About
Noted as one of Nashville’s most popular indie artists on the rise, Cort Carpenter has been making a name for himself and selling out shows around the country. Cort was named ‘Male Entertainer of the Year” at the 2017 Josie Music Awards and was again a nominee in 18’ & 19’. Although unsigned, he has worked his way on to the main stage of some of the country’s biggest music festivals, and this year was featured at Live Nation’s Watershed on the ‘Next from Nashville’ stage. Cort continues to break down barriers as an indie artist and is gaining the attention of industry folks around Music City.
In 2019, he self-released three radio singles (Ex ‘Em, Electricity, Dollar Store) as well as a collaboration (Safe Zone), with world renown country DJ, Dee Jay Silver. All singles have had some success at country radio this year, and currently, Cort’s last single ‘Dollar Store’, is quickly moving up the Music Row charts here in Nashville. His newest single ‘One Thing’ is out now and is already a fan favorite.
Cort’s 2019 ‘Electricity’ Tour was a major success and concluded in December. Playing over 150 dates around the country throughout the year, fans packed into venues to see Cort and the band when they came through their respected cities. Some of the tour highlights included the Oregon Jamboree, Watershed Music Festival, and the world famous Gulf Shores Shrimp Fest. Not to forget, Cort sold out his 5th consecutive CMA Fest fan club party last June.
Country fans are always looking for music that they can relate to and Cort is highly conscious of that when creating music of his own. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, he brings a unique quality to the country music scene with a strong yet heartfelt voice that sets him apart from anyone in the genre.
On the home front, Cort enjoys hanging out with his friends and family and spending time with his wife, Kelly, whom he married in May 17th, 2014. This year was very tough on the family as Cort lost both of his beloved dogs. Cort also heads his own foundation, Cort Carpenter Cares, which launched in 2015. This organization assists homeless animals & people.
Catch Cort in 2020 as he will be on the road and coming to a city near you. This is one artist you don’t want to miss that’s on the come up in the country music scene.
Additional Booking Notes
You see, we are the best fit for your event because we provide the personal portable BOSE sound system. Renting sound and coordinating all of that is time consuming and annoying, so that's why we take care of it for you! We have an easy set-up that requires about 30-45 minutes to get dialed in for your event. You can't get any easier than that! :)
